EASTON, Mass. – Playing another nationally ranked team on the road, the Pace University field hockey team was edged by No. 7 Stonehill on Saturday afternoon, 6-2.
The Skyhawks' victory was fueled by a 4-0 stretch to begin the game, which included back-to-back goals from Emma Mawn in the second quarter.
